71It could only be told if we know that the toxicity of anatoxin is attributed to the reactivity of the keto group in the compound.
If the Keto group is the main reactive component then certainly , it's toxicity will be removed after removing it. However, I could not not find enough information regarding that.
See if you can find it's working /attack mechanism.
